<p>Wow, I didn&#8217;t know what to italicize, so I emphasized both parts.  He&#8217;s right.  I mean, in all fairness, as an entrepreneur I (and others like me) pontificate uselessly as well, don&#8217;t get me wrong.  But we don&#8217;t do that for a living, we only pontificate uselessly when know-it-all VCs (not all, just some) ask us useless questions showing <a href="http://watchmojo.com/web/blog/index.php/2008/02/20/why-most-vc-backed-ad-supported-companies-are-doomed-to-fail/" target="_blank">their lack of understanding of advertising-based business models</a>.</p>
